MINEOLA - Nassau County officials announced Monday that more than $1 million worth of heroin was seized and seven people were arrested in a drug ring that spanned from Pennsylvania to Long Island.

Nassau District Attorney Madeline Singas says the investigation started back in September, when 51-year-old Donna Martin, of Freeport, and a Queens man were arrested with 100 grams of heroin on them.

Six people were previously arrested and arraigned in connection with the alleged heroin ring. A seventh defendant, Ebony Felder, was extradited from Georgia and arraigned on conspiracy charges in Nassau County Monday.

Prosecutors say Victor McKeever, the alleged ringleader, directed the operation out of Pittsburgh. He is being held on $1 million bond after he was arrested last December, but officials say he fought extradition until last week.

Police say the heroin was cut with the anesthestic propofol or the painkiller fentanyl.
